100 points/'#5 Top 100 Wines of 2025' Kerin O'Keefe: "The drop-dead gorgeous Gianni Brunelli stopped me in my tracks with its stunning fragrance of freshly picked violet, iris, forest berry, leather and eucalyptus. All about extreme elegance, the palate is equally captivating, delivering layers of succulent Morello cherry, wild raspberry, blood orange, dark spice and crushed mint. Taut, ultra-refined tannins provide seamless support while fresh acidity keeps it vibrant and impeccably balanced. While it’s already incredibly tempting, it also promises years of graceful aging. Hats off to Laura Brunelli and her team. Drink 2029–2039. Abv: 14%. (Nov 2025)"
97 points Raffaele Vecchione (WinesCritic.com): "Rich in mixed red flowers, it comes alive with nuances of hawthorn, magnolia, gardenia, and acacia. The rose petals and pomegranate in the background are very graceful. Medium body, fine-grained tannins, and a clear, straightforward finish that's decidedly clean and engaging. Impressive juiciness. Better from 2027. (Nov 2025)"
95 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "Dried flowers mix with crushed rocks, grilled herbs and spiced orange peels as the darkly alluring 2021 Brunello di Montalcino smolders up from the glass. The wine is polished in feel, silken and serene with a harmonious mix of tantalizing acidity, minerals and ripe red and black fruits. While tannic, the tannins are round and refined, leaving a classically dry sensation as hints of licorice and cedary spice fade. Drink:2028-2046. (Nov 2025)"
